Play: MoliËre Than Thou

Impressive solo peformance, even if you're unfamiliar with Moliere's works. You have to pay attention to get the nuances of the humor. This performance is about as far from the neo-surrealist's brand of humor as you can get.
Nice word play. Some audience participation. Moliere Than Thou reinforces the fact that "some things never change" as one of his bits has to do with paying off a judge. A nice way to spend an hour of humor from another time, as "Moliere" goes off on one of his soliloquies.

Fantastic show! Timothy Mooney is a gifted actor who manages to weave together some of Moliere's best monologues in a spirited performance, done with panache and style. At two times he asks for volunteers from the audience to do a scene with him. Ladies: if you've ever wanted to be made love to by Mel Gibson, take him up on it. You'll only have a few lines, and he does look like Mel.

Very stong performance by an obvioiusly talented actor. Even if you don't know Moliere from Maupassant , you'll still enjoy the energy of this show. Even groundlings could like it.]

Tim Mooney's translation and interpretation of Moliere's work is pure surprising and inspired fun. He performs with such energy and intensity that the audience walks away with a smiling exhaustion. This is definitely not your high school Classics performance. Go and see it while you can!!
